Falken High Country A-T

Falken Tire, well known for its high quality, high performance product, has introduced a new, rugged line of all-terrain tires, the High Country A/T. As the manufacturer of many award-winning tire lines, this new multi-terrain lineup is available in today's most popular sizes for light trucks and sport utilities, ranging from 15-inch to 20-inch rim diameters.

The new Falken High Country A/T confidently transitions when surfaces go from smooth to rough and dry to muddy. Deep tread depth, heavy siping and M+S performance enable a bigger bite by the tread blocks as they grab the ground in all types of weather and driving conditions.

Offering a more aggressive tread design than most original equipment tires and featuring raised white letters or reversible black letter, the High Country A/T has the performance capabilities and style to provide great daily service on highways, back roads or no roads.

At the wear bars and worn quite unevenly at just shy of 25k miles. Of those 25,000 miles, about half was on interstate and about a quarter more on two lane mountain highway. I'm very disappointed in these tires.
I've kept the pressures dead on vehicle spec, checked monthly, and rotated every 5,000 miles until 15,000 when the uneven wear was so pronounced that I decided to just run them where they were because rotation wasn't actually doing anything for me. These tires have about 100 miles of sane and sedate off-pavement travel, and weren't abused at any time. The vehicle is mechanically sound, perfectly aligned, and got new Bilstein shocks right after the first rotation. I haven't towed anything since these tires went on, and have never had more than 500 pounds in the bed.
The Snow rating I've given as a three indicates performance when new. Last winter was nervous even with 300 pounds of dead weight in the bed of the truck.

Great in the snow, quite quiet. For the first 10 months. The centers wore out completely in about 20000 kms. Then 3 of them separated.
Absolute crap. Completly dry rotted in 2 years.
I run falken tires on my race car, and they are stellar but these tires are pathetic.
